   Been there, done that, and it's taken its toll.  Restful sleep and health are inseparable--one without the other is an impossibility.  One can only do it for so long before a crash, and though it is definitely possible to rest up and do it again, that process chips away at health.

      Yes, that's true.  Yet people who work at night seem to do okay, even if sleep creeps in sooner or later.

   Well as a student I have pulled many an all-nighter when deadlines week is quickly approaching and there aren't enough hours in the day. But those are just one-offs, I couldn't live like that.
   
   I recently had my exams and my anxiety gives me insomnia to the point that I will go to bed at midnight tired and only start falling asleep around 7am. I am trying to fix it now but it is so difficult and I feel perpetually exhausted. I cannot wait til I can get a full night of restful sleep and get rid of these bags under my eyes.

      I know where your coming from.  The feeling is a rush up until the end.  When finished that's some good sleep.

   My all-nighters tended more to be a Friday or Saturday night. Saturday best because I could sleep with liberty on Sunday. I can't say this is a sure cure or anything like that (Insert typical disclaimer here), but I used an old somewhat inexpensive on the fly 'hang over' cure (?). It is two breakfast jacks, two regular tacos, a small fry, and two milks.
   
   It is loaded with protein and amino acids. (Eggs, Cheese, milk, and the meat) - healing or repairing kinda' thing. And, you get a carbohydrate load too (Bread and taco shells) - energy. Sugars lead to early crash symptoms. I use that formula for lunch too shooting for maybe a 1/4-pounder or better with cheese and, again, milk. Yeah, I know, not healthy, (Lifestyle stuff?) but seemed to do the trick.

      So your remedy was eating. That makes sense.  Thanks for your answer Tim Mitchell.

   I like to play poker, so many nights I play poker and then don't go to sleep until the next night.
   
   It is no biggie.
